1 ornate picture frame with glass attached
Chalkboard paint
Foam brush
Flat screw driver
1. My frame had some not so beautiful artwork attached — the pre-made kind (like most at Goodwill) so my first step was removing the paper backing to the frame and using a screw driver to pry open the metal tabs holding the glass in place. Be careful!
2. Discard the artwork and remove the frame (spray paint it if you want a different color) and clean the glass.
3. On a flat covered surface lightly paint 1 layer of chalkboard paint using a foam brush on the glass and let dry 30 minutes. Continue the painting, drying cycle until the glass is totally opaque and covered (I did 3 coats). Let dry totally for 24 hours.
4. Re-assemble the glass into the frame and push back down the small metal tabs.
